They're a relaxed fit on my, err, relaxed shape. It's just getting the right size and not being too fussy about the colour.

I forgot which store I looked at last when I was looking for trackies and they were quite tight and slim fitting which I really hate.

Can’t remember if it was K mart or big W

I got these

The last time I went to BigW they weren't as good as I remember. Not sure what size you'd need but my 11yo Miniest takes XS, Elder 13yo takes S, my fat ass takes M, and Mr P takes 2XL. They had up to 4XL that I saw. Mr Ps Mum also wears them because they are roomy enough in the caboose to fit her incontinence pants.

I’ll check them out when I go shopping this week after I get paid.

Do they have elastics at the bottom of the legs?

Took a pic of Miniest's pants to show you what the waist and one of the leg cuffs looks like:

Thanks for the pic

I’ll have to try them before I buy them. Not too keen on the leg cuffs

Understandable, I'm not usually a fan of that style of cuff either. I'd prefer cuffless because it suits my body shape better.
